Lift a 500L Fridge up a set of winding stairs and the reverse for old.
$200
Turner ACT 2612, Australia
10th Nov 2025
Lifting a new 500L fridge up a winding set of stairs, and take down a 530L fridge the same stairs. Can pay extra if you can take away the old Fridge. Stairs are 17 steps, see photos. The courier who delivered the fridge, said getting it up the stairs, and getting the old fridge down is probably a 2 strong persons or 3 person job. "we need to get a new fridge up the stairs, and old fridge down. They are a similar size, and we've done the calculation, so we think it should go up ok, even through the turn. However the stairs do turn somewhat awkwardly, so it has to be lifted as its turned which will be a bit tricky." New fridge is this fridge. https://www.appliancecentral.com.au/fridges/wtm5002we-r-westinghouse-503-l-top-mount-fridge Old fridge is similar size and can be seen at the following link, but its quite old so the link is few on details: https://www.westinghouse.com.au/fridges-and-freezers/fridges/rj532s/.
Enthusiastic work. You could tell that they were a little new, but I think they will go far.

Legs need to be undone to move table top. It is a heavy top. It needs to be carried from my garage to the deck. We did do it before. 3 or 4 strong guys would take a few minutes to move. Then legs screwed back on. I'd say max 20 minutes.
